Stabilizing support for opening-wedge osteotomies
Abstract
stabilizer to open osteotomy wedge, constituted by a plate (12) and screws (2a) for connecting two parts (13, 13a) of bone (14) formed by an opening osteotomy (5), said support plate a longitudinal extent extending between a first end (15) of said plate and a second end (17) of said plate, being steps provided in said first and second ends for passing said screws therethrough for connecting said plate two bone parts said plate further comprising fixing means (25) adapted to be inserted and fixed in each of these parts in order to secure said portions in a preset configuration, to support an axial load that presses on said bone, said fixing means comprising at least a first protrusion (26) and a second protrusion (27) which are parallel and facing each other in a direction of said longitudinal extension and protrude at right angles from one face inside (18) of said plate to be inserted and fixed in said portions respectively at an upper edge (28) and a lower edge (29) of said opening, wherein said first and second protrusions are arranged between said passages of said first and second ends of said plate with respect to said longitudinal extension of said plate, wherein said first and second protuberances a wedge shape, with respective conical walls (30, 31) facing each other, and being affected in its central part by a recess (32) respective U-shaped, said first and second ends of said plate formed by two lobes (16), which are disposed specularly symmetrically with respect to a longitudinal plane of symmetry of said plate, said lobes being affected respectively by a first eye (19) and a second eye (20) of said passages for the passage of said screws, said curved with respect to a front plane of said plate so as to form lobes being on said inner face, a concavity that corresponds substantially to the anatomical curvature of the surface of the epiphysis of said bone and said second end of said plate having a third eye (23) and a fourth eye (24) of said passages for the passage of said screws, whose respective axes belong to said longitudinal plane of symmetry.
